Just Started Mushies And I Have ?



Recommended Posts

I am sure this is a something that happens in the beginning but I just need a bit of reassurance. I just started full mushies and I am pretty much sticking to scrambled eggs, soft canned corned beef with over easy egg yolk only etc.. I am getting this feeling like I either need to burp or vomit. It has happened 3 times in a row now but I have not burped or vomited. Again, I am sure this is common but I would like for it to stop if I can make it so. Any advise or tips would be so appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Yes, it is common. I actually do burb and that's my signal to stop eating. Everyone has a different signal. But, I would also mention that some people have trouble with eggs. You might try eating some canned chili ground up (good processor or blender) or refried Beans. They are both high in Protein. Other things that I did successfully during the mushy stage was to blend canned Soups and maybe add some different spices to make them taste better. Mix it up a little so you don't get bored with the eggs.

Thanks for the tip, I did not know that I could have a chili, I love chili.

That feeling of needing to burp is my signal that I'm close to over-full, with nausea next if I take one more bite. My wife bought me a bunch of the 3-oz paper bathroom cups for measuring my meals. One cup is my limit, and until I learn to police myself better on speed and food volume, the cups are sparing me the grief of the technicolor yawn.

When I get that feeling its from eating too quickly or not chewing well. I've been focusing on eating more slowly this past week and have not had that feeling.

This happens to me as well. Usually the first few bites results in my belching once or twice and then I'm good with the rest. :)

I just started mushies today. Tomorrow I'm going to try an egg. I found a recipe for a scrambled egg, add one laughing cow cheese, one tsp. milk mix well break up the cheese as best you can. Cook the egg. This makes the egg creamy, I'm thinking this will help it go down easier for us. I hope so, I love scrambled eggs. :)

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
